I think I'm at an age where I think about the connection of "me" and the world. The recent disasters in the world have made me think about the meaning and value of my existence again. Especially what happened in my country recently, the virus in Wuhan, let me feel shocking. I keep thinking about what I can do as a designer. How do I communicate with the world?
I thought this exhibition might give me some answers. I went to the exhibition with these questions.
We are facing a serious ecological crisis, and the environmental disaster will not only affect us but also affect future generations. The works in this exhibition are critically explored and fantasized about the future. Shows how humans can reconnect with nature and develop a more empathetic relationship with other animals.
What impressed me most was David Parry's Installation view, eco-visionaries: Confronting a planet in a state of emergency. He put us in a simulated situation where we were confronted with some jellyfish, unaware that the other person on the other side was watching us, prompting some thoughts about our future individual and future humans. It was a very different experience for me.
